Marion County is home to two of the 106 markets across the Commonwealth recently accepted into the 2012 Kentucky Farm Bureau Certified Roadside Farm Market Program. The Marion County members are: Serenity Farm Alpacas and Williams Country Market.
In joining the Kentucky Farm Bureau Certified Roadside Farm Market Program, these markets have committed to offering quality products and service to their customers. Their acceptance by Farm Bureau tells customers that they meet the highest standards of quality, freshness, and marketing appeal.

The Marion County Homemaker Leader Lesson Training will be held in Washington County at 10 a.m., March 29. The lesson on “Saving water and energy in your home and garden” will be taught by Amy Aldenderfer and Dennis Morgeson. For more information, contact the extension office at (270) 692-2421.
